How to use click with any button or any link

Question

I am using selenum webdriver and want to know as what is the best way of using click()?

Answer 1

I am taking an example for gmail click of login button.

You can create a webelement for the button i.e.

WebElement button1 = driver.findElement(By.className("CwaK9"));

and then click on that button.

button1.click();

The other way to do that is directly identify the element and click on it i.e.

driver.findElement(By.className("CwaK9")).click();

Hope this helps.
